A Very Special Person and a Very Special Milestone

Henry Sachwald has turned a labour of love into a broadcast institution

Committed to introducing Australian audiences to the best of Broadway,
West End and Australian musical theatre, Henry has worked as an
unpaid volunteer at 3MBS-FM in Melbourne since 1983. On Monday
night the 6th August 1984, Henry presented his first program of
Theatretrack. Since that date Henry has introduced Australian
audiences to the sights and sounds of Broadway’s Golden
Age, the West End musical successes of the 1980’s and 90’s
and the recordings of Australian classic and contemporary musical
theatre.

Listeners to Henry Sachwald’s Theatretrack include Geoffrey
Rush, Lisa McCune, Marina Prior, High Jackman and thousands of
other loyal weekly regulars who have become subscribers and devoted
fans of 3MBS through Theatretrack.
